History
The 283 mm/52 SK C/28 was the main cannon mounted on the Deutschland-class Panzerschiffs (literally "Armored Ships" but called "pocket battleships" in the UK) such as the Admiral Graf Spee. While the Reichsmarine (German Navy) originally planned on arming these ships with six 30 cm guns or 12-inch guns, the design was later changed to the 283 mm/52 SK C/28 guns for two reasons. The first was a political as the 11-inch guns would be less likely to provoke a response from the Allied Powers who through the Naval Inter-Allied Commission of Control, had the power to regulate the size of armaments on German ships. The second was economical as the smaller caliber eased pressure from the ships design staff and were easier to produce compared to larger artillery pieces given the industrialized Ruhr region was under French occupation. The SK C/28 was a built-up gun with a one piece barrel jacket and had inferior ballistic characteristics compared to the latter 283 mm/54,5 SK C/34.
Media
An excellent addition to the article would be a video guide, as well as screenshots from the game and photos.
